Oh fer Pete's sake:

baaaaaaaah baaaaaaaaaaaah baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh daahdaaaaaaaaaaaah (boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom)... 2001 A Space Monotony

Does it end here?

Or maybe we just came to a sane conclusion once we DID do that.

Double Indemnity is a classic. Great film.

Actually, the phrase I remember coming up over and over again was, "Now I know this doesn't agree with what I've taught on this subject before..." One other area of disagreement is whether was acting in error when he tried to sacrifice Isaac. Geer does not think Abraham misunderstood God at all, whereas Wierwille thought Abraham misunderstood the command. I'm not sure either way.

I've stopped contributing to CES and no longer request/receive their tapes. I haven't really listened to a tape in well over a year, so I decided to stop pretending I was really a supporter just because I dropped a dime in the coffee can every now and then. Just being honest.

Ah, Moony beat me to the coffee. Let me know if you need a refill.

This doesn't quite seem appropriate for politics or for the gallery/reading room, but I'm okay with being overruled on that. I saw "Inside Man," this weekend, and before it started there was a trailer for a film called "United 93." It's about the fourth plane hijacked on Sept. 11. I, for one, will be among the first in line to see the film, although I must admit, it's the first time I ever cried at a trailer. Maybe it won't be as "good" as the two minute clip suggests, but I'm expecting something really, really powerful here. What do you think? Is it too soon for a dramatic movie about Sept. 11? (Yes, I know there was a TV version already made. Sorry I missed it. But somehow, it's not the same as the big screen).

Wha? Huh? Shouldn't we Floridians be hibernating this time of year?

These are really funny: http://www.tshirthell.com/hell.shtml (Example: I'm not fat: I'm pregnant with ice cream's baby). Warning: some of these are REAL offensive. You've been warned. No complaints allowed.

Hawk's Crest. White or red, It's never let me down.

Lots of birthdays reported today (I'm assuming the birthdays are real, and not just because it's April Fool's Day). Rhino, HCW, Flay Minion... There are others, but, Happy Birthday All!

If a song's been covered by another band, then either artist is acceptable for the game. For example, "I Feel For You" would be acceptable from Chaka Kahn or from Prince; "I Think We're Alone Now" would be acceptable from Tommy James or from Tiffany. However, if the remake has a changed lyric and the changed lyric is part of the clue, then only the remake counts. "He was just 17, you know what I mean" would have to be "I Saw Him Standing There," by Tiffany, not "I Saw Her Standing There" by the Quarrymen. Why I remember all those old Tiffany songs, I have no idea. Anyway, THE has spoken.

As a society, we pay for the things we encourage. If we're asking stay-at-home moms to repay their education costs, we're saying we don't value educated stay-at-home moms. We prefer them with basic high school diplomas, at most, and when the kids have more complicated questions, our answer is, "ask dad when he gets home." I have no problem with kids asking dad. I have no problems with kids asking mom. I voted no.

It's more than a third, Allan. See you there!

I'm not sure Dooj got it. I am sure Topoftheworld got it. Dooj, you be the judge. I say, give it to topsy.

This is bad, but I wasn't expecting to chime in...

Yes. At least, I think it is.

And whatever happened to the middleman?

Actually, some of us think your message is just funny, by now.

There were three Terminator movies. But yes, it was Conan the Destroyer. I was thinking of using "And if you do not listen, then the HELL with you" from the first movie, but that would have been guessed in about 0.024 seconds.

LG, Thank you for your reply. I agree with it wholeheartedly. I no longer say outright that the 1942 snowstorm was a lie. I say I believe it was a lie, based largely on the fact that the man is proven to lie about snowstorms. I freely admit that there's no proof beyond a reasonable doubt that the 1942 snowstorm did not happen, just as there is not a shred of proof that it did happen, beyond the single-witness testimony of a man who told at least one and likely two documented lies about nonexistent snowstorms.
